Brian Gionta wasn't asked to be the leading point scorer for the Canadiens this year, but a 46 point season that isn't good enough for most teams to even be in the top three was just that for Montreal. His intangibles were a welcome change for the Canadiens, and he will be asked to help there again. Want to talk about going to Hell and back? Ask Carey Price. All eyes were on him as the replacement for last year's playoff hero Jaroslav Halak, and though he didn't get the Canadiens out of the first round, he was clearly the best player on the Canadiens the entire season. P.K. Subban was to be the offensive spark from the blue line the Canadiens desperately needed. What he brought though, was an antagonizing style of play that got under opponents' skin, and he is definitely closer to superstardom than people think.
